the fraudulent claims of lance armstrong. there has been a whistle-blower lawsuit filed by one of the members of the team. there is a law that says if you expose fraud, you can be compensated. the u.s. government may say lance armstrong should be responsible for that award. and then you have companies, as you say, like nike and other companies that depended upon his good reputation to market their products, and they could claim that they have been defrauded. so lots of potential civil lawsuits against lance armstrong, depending upon what he tells oprah in that interview. >> and if you're a lawyer, on either side, if you're lance armstrong's lawyer or you're on the anti-doping side, you're one of the agencies, these bodies looking at his record, what are you looking for in that interview? >> well, i'm looking for a precise admission to the use of performance-enhancing drugs and blood doping. i'm looking for him to say he actually did that. because you notice he rather brazenly in that deposition that was just played denies and
